http://www.momsnaps.com a lot of photos Fri, 20 Aug 2010 22:14:40 +0000 http://backend.userland.com/rss092 en A few weeks ago, we went to a Spray Park that was perfect for the girl. She doesn't like a lot of splashing so she was able to get wet without getting too wet. Here is one of the cooler sprayers. It's a flower. I kept trying to play with ... http://www.momsnaps.com/?p=587 These sunflowers are some my mom planted. They look way better than mine. Of course, she planted hers in the garden while I planted mine in a pot. More of mine actually grew than I had expected, so I think they crowded each other out. Her sunflowers are gorgeous and ... http://www.momsnaps.com/?p=584 My nephews discovered a bird's nest in the tree they love to play around. At first I tried my telephoto lens but then realized that I could get much closer without disturbing anything than I originally thought. I may try to take a photo a day or every two days ... http://www.momsnaps.com/?p=581 My sunflowers are beginning to bloom. This type is my favorite. I just love the rich, dark colors. And I had forgotten how much I love my Sigma telephoto lens. I took some pictures yesterday with it and loved the results. You can definitely tell the focus of this picture ... http://www.momsnaps.com/?p=578 This morning I went to shoot a couple of pictures of some flowers I bought this weekend. My lens immediately fogged up as it was already pretty balmy outside - especially coming from a nice, cool house. Anyway, it almost looks like I used some sort of filter or something. I ... http://www.momsnaps.com/?p=575 So I may let you sleep on my chest, lay on my lap even when I'm trying to crochet, and walk right under my feet first thing in the morning, but I have to draw the line at my yarn. This was just too cute not to take a picture ... http://www.momsnaps.com/?p=572 Look what my daughter made at pre-school. It's just too cute. The flowers are made from the fingerprints. The teacher glued gun the stones in place but Raegan told her where to put them. I think it's adorable and hope that I don't kill the flowers. I love flowers but ... http://www.momsnaps.com/?p=569 So, I was cropping a picture with IrFanView when I decided to play with some of the settings. Since our hard drive crashed a while ago, I don't have anything installed(that I use) to touch up photos. I found a setting for color swap, so I did that, changing RGB ... http://www.momsnaps.com/?p=564 I love this time of year. So many flowers are in bloom. My mom's yard looks so wonderful. It's hard to stay inside and do anything these days knowing there is such beauty outside. Her garden inspires me to plant more at our house and even try some indoor plants. ... http://www.momsnaps.com/?p=561 This picture definitely belongs in the 'kids' category because it not only has my kid in it but she is holding a baby goat - called a kid. Yeah, Yeah, I know it's corny. But I love that type of humor. This is Rae at what we call the goat farm. ... http://www.momsnaps.com/?p=558
